Tidying a folder

A new naming template is never applied to what is already in your library. Tidying brings a folder in line, and shows you the list before anything moves.

The Normalize library preview: 5 to move, 0 already organized, 0 conflicts above Select all and Select none, then ticked rows each carrying a file name, its size, Fix… and the name it would be given, with Cancel and Apply (moves files on disk) at the foot

  1. Click Normalize… beside a library folder in Settings › Library › Folders, or beside a category’s folder in Settings › Library › Categories; for one film right-click its card, for one episode its row on the series page, and choose Rename / normalize….
  2. Kaveo reads any file it has not seen before (Preparing the preview); Cancel stops it, and nothing has moved.
  3. In the Normalize library list, untick a row to leave it out, or use Select all / Select none.
  4. Click Fix… beside a row Kaveo read wrong, correct it, then click Re-plan.
  5. Click Apply (moves files on disk).
  • Subtitles, artwork and the NFO file travel with the rename, and so do the title’s saved position, its card in Recently played, and your corrections.
  • A file Kaveo could not place is listed as a conflict with its reason; see Fixing an import for the ones you can answer.
